Hazardous radiation protective glasses for medical and research laboratories
In the current study, the bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) content was inter-substituted with gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) in sodium borate glass. Glass sample density and molar volume values show a reverse trend. The optical transparent radiation shielding glasses are

Lead-borate glass system doped with Sm3+ ions for the X-ray shielding applications
The impact of varying Sm2O3 content on radiation shielding properties of 15PbF2: (65-x) B2O3: 20K2O:xSm2O3 (where 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.5 mol %) glass samples, was investigated by studying their physical, radio-luminescence and X-ray-shielding characteristics.

Influence of boundary layer transition on the trajectory optimisation of a reusable launch vehicle [PDF]
Based on flight experience from the Space Shuttle programme, it is well known that mis-prediction of the effects of boundary layer transition represents one of the highest technical risks when designing a Reusable Launch Vehicle.

Tunable p-p Interactions Along Linear Chains Control Metavalent Bonding in Chalcogenide Heterostructures. [PDF]
Substitution of Sr at the Pb site within an atomic plane of PbTe perturbs the p–p hopping network. Since Sr does not support the p–p interaction key to metavalent bonding along (‐Pb‐Te‐) chains, long‐range electronic charge transfer in response to displacement of Pb is stalked at the Sr site.
